Ok, Santa been very very good to me, and now I have to solve a small
problem.
I had this working once, wrote down (I thought) all the settings, but now
following my notes, it's not working.. For logistical reasons, I don't
want to change the order of the equipment here, though it would probably
make this work easier.
Cable modem feeds into Linksys BEFSR81 router as 192.168.1.1
DHCP on, starting at 192.168.1.100
Several computers tie into this router, everything works at this level.
Cable from router port over to Linksys BEFW11S4 wireless router.
Set to fixed IP of 192.168.1.2
I can see this router from any machine plugged into it, but I can't see or
ping 192.168.1.1 or anything on the net.
Here's my cryptic notes from before, what am I missing?
Configuring a Linksys router to live behind another linksys router.
In this system, I used an 8 port router connected to my cable modem, and a
four port wireless router connected to the main router on it's "link" port.
The cable connects to any standard port on the wired router.
This gives me three wired ports available on the wireless box, plus the
wireless.
On the wireless box:
Default it.
Turn off DHCP
Set LAN address to 192.168.1.2
Wireless enable, all wireless to default.
Static WAN IP: 192.168.1.2
Subnet 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 192.168.1.1 (the wired router)
DNS: 192.168.1.1
Reboot all PCs behind the wireless router.
While they are rebooting, power cycle the wireless router.
